Coke Bust - Confined 12"

Now, we don't have this record yet, but a mutual friend of ours just got his and is letting us listen to it. Ordinarily we would wait to get our own copy and listen to it and do a review of sorts, but something caught our attention today that we just had to address. That something is STUPID PEOPLE.

Yes, we know that they're everywhere and that they continue to pollute our population by breeding with each other. But that doesn't mean that we aren't going to continue to call them out for their stupidity. 

Case in point, the new Coke Bust LP is only 9 minutes long. That's right, ONLY 9 MINUTES LONG. Go ahead and let that sink in for a minute, because apparently, there are some people out there that are bitching about it being too short for an LP. Check out this post that the band made about this outlandish crime against hardcore.

"Your new record is too short. Why is it only 9 minutes?" - We've seen this a few times. Here's why: We played our songs faster in the studio than we did at practice, less is more, we play short sets and put out short records and we trimmed the fat and only put on songs that we really liked. We believe in the "short, fast and loud" philosophy. Our 7"s are four minutes and our 12"s are nine. We think the artwork and packaging (including an enormous poster) warrant the larger format. If you disagree, that's fine. The record is streaming for free on Bandcamp :). Please direct all duration-related complaints to our award-winning customer service department over at Grave Mistake Incorporated!

Let me get this straight, you're bitching because Coke Bust put out a record that they are proud to put out to shlubs like you and not put out a record with a bunch of songs that they feel aren't their strongest. Holy shit, what a bunch of fucking assholes they are! Somebody put out an A.P.B. to promoters everywhere and tell them not to book these guys when they go on tour because they put out LP's that only are only 9 minutes long.

Listen up douche bags, you guys should be thanking Coke Bust AND Grave Mistake Records for putting out a great product. Not only is the record fucking bad ass so far, but the label gives you all kinds of little goodies to go with your purchase. We took this picture of what our friend got with his purchase and we can't wait to order our own copies.

That poster is big. Like, really big. (Insert "that's what she said" line here.) Plus some promo stuff for a zine called "Mosher's Delight", which we're not familiar with, but we will be getting our hands on a copy of it sometime soon. Record label sticker, download code for the record, promo's for a couple of other things. And most importantly, a great looking record cover, insert and color vinyl to boot. If you're going to bitch about spending $12 for all this, then you're a MORON. Please walk the plank and take your bitching with you.
